Chromium is not the best for playing videos. Try mplayer or mpv or something alike. I doubt you'll get great performance beyond 720p though. Might not even get it in some cases with 720p? If I wanna use an SBC as a media player, I either use LibreELEC or CoreELEC and don't use Alllwinner, but Amlogic. Good luck.

The DRM / GPU patches are from mainline. I'm sure there are or will be some updates, hacks and tweaks that eventually come down the road. But that's beyond the scope of bringing up the board.

@ScoreABSM https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/8394 I enabled gpu via overlay. Looking fine on my end. Tested using Chromium and Youtube. Still not sure about that audio dmesg error. Audio does work though. Image I ran test with: https://github.com/pyavitz/binary/releases/download/images/Armbian-unofficial_25.08.0-trunk_Bananapim4zero_bookworm_current_6.12.35_xfce_desktop.img.xz dmesgandmisc.txt

@ScoreABSM I have no clue what the HDMI audio errors are in the dmesg. I noticed them before as well. I know mainline doesn't actually have HDMI audio support yet. I'm not sure where these HDMI audio patches originated, but I assume the OrangePI repo. Of course, I could just be doing something wrong here on a DTS level? Strange your getting chanspec errors. This was resolved on my end by updating the wireless-regdb. You can try resolving it with this: "Put in your COUNTRYCODE" extraargs=cfg80211.ieee80211_regdom=US or this echo "options cfg80211 ieee80211_regdom=US" > /etc/modprobe.d/cfg80211.conf I'll disable the gpu by default. No. I don't see how removing those RTC patches would be creating these errors. The chanspec one is well known. Also happens on RPI's. I have a HACK patch that disables the error, but thats not really a fix. When I ran tests with the GPU before I never saw those errors and that GPU patch was pulled from mainline. I believe? Pretty sure it is the same patch I use in my personal builds. II'll say this. This is becoming endless. I'm getting ready to toss this SBC in the garbage

You could attempt to recover ur current install by adding the required DTB to the SDCARD and see if the unit boots. Once booted, mount the eMMC and again copy the DTB to the required dir. DTB DIR: /boot/dtb/rockchip/ rk3566-nanopi-r3s-lts.dtb

According to ur log. It's pulling down an older kernel. This kernel does not have the DTB required so it's failing to boot. After purging the kernel on the current IMG available and installing the kernel from apt. https://paste.armbian.com/orokufexik The result is a missing DTB. root@nanopi-r3s-lts:~# ls /boot/dtb/rockchip/rk3566-nanopi-* /boot/dtb/rockchip/rk3566-nanopi-r3s.dtb

Yeah it applies.

I've seen this HDMI issue on some SM1 units, "TV Boxes". There is a REVERT floating around which resolves it, but was not accepted. https://lore.kernel.org/linux-arm-kernel/001401db8ed4$392ef030$ab8cd090$@martijnvandeventer.nl/T/ I've been currently using it on 6.12.y. I have no clue if the current STABLE kernel also has this problem. REVERT-clk-meson-g12a-Fix-kernel-warnings-when-no-display-attached.patch

@ScoreABSM https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/8368

Ur welcome.

Tried creating an overlay and changing it to; peripheral? /dts-v1/; /plugin/; / { compatible = "allwinner,sun8i-h2-plus", "allwinner,sun8i-h3"; fragment@0 { target = <&usb_otg>; __overlay__ { dr_mode = "peripheral"; }; }; };

The issue appears to be two things. These two patches and the current defconfig(s) being used. drv-rtc-sun6i-support-RTCs-without-external-LOSCs.patch drv-rtc-sun6i-Add-Allwinner-H616-support.patch When I disable those patches and use my own defconfig everything works as it should. https://paste.armbian.com/tixixocubu The hard part here would be figuring out exactly what in the defconfig(s) are either breaking things or missing. Also if I disable those patches, what does it break on other units? I'm under the impression these patches were rejects from the original h616 bring up in mainline. But I could be wrong?

@ScoreABSM Sorry I had to revert that PR. It seemed to initially work, but in the end it started hitting fails more than it functioned. https://github.com/armbian/build/pull/8344 I'm still on the case.
